Chapter 6: Wireless Settings
This section mainly deals with the wireless settings, including Basic Settings, Security Setting, Access
Control and Advanced Settings.
Wireless Mode
AP Mode: router serves as an access point in this
mode to be connected. The work stations around
will be connected with router by SSID to share the
Internet resources. To configure the AP mode,
open the Basic Setting and Security Setting
windows in the Wireless Setting folder.
Station Mode: In this mode, router is used as a
work station to be connected with an AP by
scanning the AP's SSID and provides the security
authentication. Generally speaking, AP mode is
passive to be connected with work station, but
Station mode always takes the initiative in
connecting with AP.
SSID: SSID is the unique ID name of access
point. The wireless work station must keep the
same SSID name with the AP's for connections.
By enabling Open Scanning button, the device
can search available APs.
21
Wireless-N Broadband Router
MAC: To connect certain AP, you need to know
the AP's MAC address. By enabling Open
Scanning button to find out the available AP’s
MAC address.
Channel: You can use the channel same as the
AP. By enabling Open Scanning button to find out
the available AP's channel.
Security Mode: router provides the following
security authentication methods:
(1) WEP: selects ASCII format (5 or 13 ASCII
characters except illegal characters.) or Hex
format (10 or 26 Hex characters).
(2) WPA/WPA2-personal (PSK) is safer than other
encryption methods because the key is subject to
change all the time. WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK
utilizes the TKIP or AES encryption algorithm.
WEP Mode: The shared key requires the same
WEP keys between the access point and work
station.
Default KEY: After entering the WEP keys, select
one key as the default one, for example, Key 1
KEY Format: AASCII: Enter 13 characters with
case sensitive ("a-z", "A-Z" and "0-9"). Hex: enter
26 Hex characters ("A-F", "a-f" and “0~9”).

you do not want to use wireless security, select Disable from the drop-down menu.
24
Wireless-N Broadband Router
1. Mixed WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), a basic
encryption method, usually encrypts wireless data
using a series of digital keys (64 bits or 128 bits in
length). By using the same keys on each of your
wireless network devices, you can prevent
unauthorized wireless devices from monitoring
your transmissions or using your wireless
resources.
SSID Choice: Select SSID to be configured
security. The device supports to configure different
security classes between the main SSID and the
subordinate SSID.
Security Mode: There are several different
security modes; you can choose one from mixed
WEP, WPA-Personal, WPA-Enterprise, etc.
Default Key: Select a valid encryption key.
WEP Key1, 2, 3, 4: Enter the WEP key here.
Please note that the key should be in accordance
with the key format and be valid. The key should
be ASCII Characters or Hexadecimal Digits
25
Wireless-N Broadband Router
2. WPA-Personal
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), a Wi-Fi
standard, is a more recent wireless encryption
scheme, designed to improve the security
features of WEP. It applies more powerful
encryption types (such as TKIP [Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol] or AES [Advanced Encryption
Standard]) and can change the keys dynamically
on every authorized wireless device.
WPA Algorithms: Select one encryption type,
AES or TKIP. (AES is stronger than TKIP.)
Pass Phrase: Enter the key which must have
8-63 ASCII characters.
Key Renewal Interval: Enter the key renewal
period. It is to tell the Router how often to change
the keys.
26
Wireless-N Broadband Router
3. WPA2-Personal
WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access version 2), It's
more secure than Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) and easy to set up.
WPA Algorithms: Select key Algorithms such as
TKIP, AES and TKIP&AES.
Pass Phrase: Enter the key which must have
8-63 ASCII characters.
Key Renewal Interval: Enter the key renewal
period. It is to tell the Router how often to change
the keys.
4. WPA-Enterprise
This Authentication protocol based on RADIUS
server. This security mode is used when a
RADIUS server is connected to the Router.
Radius IP Address: Please input IP address of
the radius server here.
Radius Port: Please input the port number of
the radius server here.
Shared key:The encryption key that the router is
authenticated through RADIUS server
Session Timeout: The recertification time
interval between the router and the server. The
default value is 3600s.
27
Wireless-N Broadband Router
5. WPA2-Enterprise
This security mode is also used when a RADIUS
server is connected to the Router.
WPA Algorithms: Select key Algorithms such as
TKIP and AES.
Radius IP Address: Please input IP address of
the radius server here.
Radius Port: Please input the port number of
the radius server here.
Shared key:The encryption key that the router is
authenticated through RADIUS server
Session Timeout: The recertification time
interval between the router and the server. The
default value is 3600s.
6. 802.1X
28
Wireless-N Broadband Router
This security mode is used when a RADIUS
server is connected to the Router. 802.1x, a kind
of Port-based authentication protocol, is an
authentication type and strategy for users. The
port can be either a physic port or logic port
(such as VLAN). For wireless LAN users, a port
is just a channel. The final purpose of 802.11x
authentication is to check if the port can be used.
If the port is authenticated successfully, you can
open this port which allows all the messages to
pass. If the port isn’t authenticated successfully,
you can keep this port “disable” which just allows
802.1x authentication protocol message to pass.
WEP: Select “enable/disable” WEP encryption
which indicates the authentication process
between wireless adapter and wireless router.
Radius IP Address: Please input IP address of
the radius server here.
Radius Port: Please input the port number of
the radius server here.
Shared key: The encryption key that the router
is authenticated through RADIUS server.
29
Wireless-N Broadband Router
Session Timeout: The recertification time
interval between the router and the server. The
default value is 3600s.
NOTE: To improve security level, do not
use those words which can be
found in a dictionary or too easy to
remember! Wireless clients will
remember the WEP key, so you only
have to input the WEP key on
wireless client once, and it’s worth
to use complicated WEP key to
improve security level.
30
Wireless-N Broadband Router
WPS Settings
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setting) can be easy
and quick to establish the connection between
the wireless network clients and the Router
through encrypted contents. The users only
enter the PIN code to configure without selecting
encryption method and entering secret keys by
manual.
WPS Mode: Supports two ways to configure
WPS settings:
PBC (Push-Button Configuration) and PIN code.
PBC: Select the PBC or press the WPS button
on the panel of the Router (Press the button for
one second and WPS indicator will be blinking
for 2 minutes, which means the WPS is enabled.
During the blinking time, you can enable another
Router to implement the WPS/PBC negotiation
between them. At present, the WPS only support
one client access. Two minutes later, the WPS
indicator will be off.).
PIN: If this option is enabled, you need to enter
a wireless client’s PIN code in the field and keep
the same code in the client.
WDS Settings
31
Wireless-N Broadband Router
In this mode, you can expand the scope of
network by combining up to four other access
points together, and every access point can still
accept wireless clients.
Lazy Mode: You need configure the router’s
BSSID into another device, not need input
another router’s BSSID in it, and then connect
together automatically.
Bridge Mode: You can wirelessly connect two or
more wired networks via this mode. In this mode,
you need to add the Wireless MAC address of
the connecting device into the Router's AP MAC
address table or select one from the scanning
table. At the same time, the connecting device
should be in Lazy, Repeater or Bridge mode.
Repeater Mode: You can select the mode to
extend the distance between the two WLAN
devices. Functioning as a WDS repeater, the
W307R connects to both a client card as an AP
and to another AP. In typical repeater
applications, APs connecting to other APs
equipped with WDS functionality must also
support WDS. In this mode, you need to add the
MAC address of the connecting device into the
32
Wireless-N Broadband Router
Router's AP MAC address table and the
connecting client should be in Lazy, Repeater or
client mode.
Encrypt Type: You can select WEP mode, TKIP
mode, AES mode for security here.
Pass phrase: Enter the key, the key format
according to encryption you selected.
AP MAC: Input the MAC address of another
wireless router.
NOTE: Two wireless routers must use the
same band, channel number, and
security setting!

The given remote requests will be re-directed to
the local servers via the virtual server. This
section deals with the single port forwarding
mainly. The Single Port Forwarding allows you to
set up kinds of public services such as web
servers, ftp, e-mail and other specialized Internet
applications on your network.
NOTE: the virtual server uses known
host-name or public IP address.
External Port: This is the external port number
for server or Internet application, for example,
port 21 for ftp service.
Internal Port: This is the port number of LAN
computer set by the Router. The Internet traffic
from the external port will forward to the internal
port.
For example, you can set the internal port NO.66
to act as the external port NO.21 for ftp service.

Port Trigger Settings
When internal clients have access to external
server in the Internet for some application, the
clients request to connect with severs, and the
server will also ask to connect with client. But in
the default setting, router will refuse to accept any
request from WAN, which will bring
communication halt. The port triggering is used
to define triggering rules. So when clients have
access to the server, the device will open the port
through which the server sends the request to
client.
IP Range: The internal IP address range for
requesting external server application.
Trigger Port: The port range through which the
internal clients send request traffics to external
server with the range of 1～65535. Note that the
low number first and two blanks can keep the
same number if needed.
External Port: The port range through which the
external server send request traffics to internal
clients with the range of 1～65535. Note that the
low number first and two blanks can keep the
43
Wireless-N Broadband Router
same number if needed.
Apply: To enable or disable the rule.
Add: After edit the rule, click the “add” button to
add the current entry to port triggering list.
Apply: Click “Apply” to activate the current rule.
Cancel: Click “Cancel” to drop all setting saved
last time.
It is allowed to delete or modify the previous rules
in the list table.
Note: The special application can be only
used in one PC. If there is more than one PC
to open the same triggering port, the external
port will be connected to the last PC for the
application.

ALG Service Settings
ALG(Application Layer Gateway)
In the context of computer networking, an ALG or
application layer gateway consists of a security
component that augments a firewall or NAT
employed in a computer network. It allows
customized NAT traversal filters to be plugged
into the gateway to support address and port
translation for certain application layer
"control/data" protocols such as FTP, BitTorrent,
SIP, RTSP, file transfer applications etc.
In order for these protocols to work through NAT
or a firewall, either the application has to know
about an address/port number combination that
allows incoming packets, or the NAT has to
monitor the control traffic and open up port
mappings (firewall pinhole) dynamically as
required. Legitimate application data can thus be
passed through the security checks of the firewall
or NAT that would have otherwise restricted the
traffic for not meeting its limited filter criteria.
Usually allowing client applications to use
dynamic ephemeral TCP/ UDP ports to
communicate with the known ports used by the
45
Wireless-N Broadband Router
server applications, even though a
firewall-configuration may allow only a limited
number of known ports. In the absence of an ALG,
either the ports would get blocked or the network
administrator would need to explicitly open up a
large number of ports in the firewall; rendering the
network vulnerable to attacks on those ports.
In the default ALG settings, the following
protocols have enabled. It is recommended to
keep the settings unchanged.
1,FTP
2,TFTP
3,PPTP
4,IPSec
5,L2TP
